[@lkcubing6204]

This kid could probably beat Hajeme Miura

[@Luckmydude]

LK Cubing naw.

[@yoyocuber2565]

LK Cubing the thing is that hajime made no mistakes and was perfectly in sync with the music perfectly, there was a 20 point difference difference in their score

[@hashbrownslayr5364]

This guy looked genuinely excited to be there, unlike some competitive people(gentry)

[@nictheperson6709]

Why is Gentry always the scapegoat for every criticism anyone has about yo-yoing in general?
Anyway, the type of vibe someone gives off in the 3 minutes they're standing on a stage is not at all indicative of what they're feeling at the time. In the freestyle, one needs to act in a way that fits their style. Some act more excited while others act more chill. It all works, its all just different.

[@drunkensheep_]
